Original and scarce lithographic poster printed by Mourlot in 1967 for his exhibition at Beggruen.


Produced for Chagall’s 1967 Oeuvre Gravé exhibition at Galerie Berggruen, Paris, this poster reproduces Le Cirque au Clown Jaune (“The Circus with the Yellow Clown”), one of his most engaging circus compositions.


A vividly coloured yellow‑clad clown stands at the centre of a lively ring, surrounded by acrobats, aerialists, and an animated crowd in the stands. The figure’s gaze and gesture invite the viewer into the spectacle, while the layered forms and buoyant line evoke both the crowd’s excitement and the performer’s presence.


Chagall returned to circus themes throughout his career because they blend joy with vulnerability: clowns and performers, he felt, inhabit a space between earthly toil and poetic imagination. The circus becomes a stage for human emotion — both play and pathos — where figures enact risk, balance, and delight in equal measure.
